Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United StatesEverything was excellent! We wished we could stay longer!
Harbour Towne Inn on the Waterfront was everything a B & B should be! We were welcomed so warmly, as if we were family. The house had such a charming ambiance - the attention to detail was evident in every area. Our room was as comfortable as it was beautiful. The bed was especially comfortable! Each morning we looked forward to an amazing breakfast - varied each day. AND there were homemade cookies served each afternoon. I will definitely choose Harbour Towne anytime I'm in the area.

Location is well within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Loved the location overlooking the harbor. The host was so gracious and friendly and provided a generous breakfast. Our room was lovely with a small Kitchenette and refrigerator, which we did not expect but were glad we had it. The bed was extremely comfortable.

United StatesThe owner is a very nice woman and cooks breakfast for you in the morning. It's an old inn but inn immaculate condition as well as taken cared of. The bathrooms are clean and the beds are very comfortable to sleep in. The best thing is it's just a short 5 minute walk to the center of town and just a stones throw from the shoreline

United StatesWish we had more time to stay there!
We absolutely LOVED the Harbour Towne Inn—so much so that we extended our stay! The Inn is beautiful and the owner was delightful. She was so outgoing and accommodating and made us feel welcome. And what a great cook. Every breakfast was a gourmand’s delight and absolutely delicious! Tea time cookies were decadent! We loved everything about our room. The bed was comfortable and our balcony overlooking the harbor was the perfect place for an early evening glass of wine or a second cup of morning coffee. The flowers and greenery around the property were beautiful. We would definitely stay again.
